There are 4 members (past and present) of The 12 Kits of Occasions who live in California. We all got together at my house in San Diego to play along with PTI's Stamp A Faire.

The California Girls

The California girls are Cathy,Kim, Joyce--that's me, and Marybeth. We spent Stamp-A-Faire together, talking, laughing, eating, and generally having a great time. We even made a card. We decided to all make the same card for the Morning Take and Bake--a case of this beauty by Tracey. Tracey could not make it to my house yesterday, as it is 2,579.9 miles from her house to mine, so we did Face Time instead, and CASEd her card.

You can see more Stamp A Faire pictures if you stop by everyone's blogs.Stay tuned...we are only a few days away from posting our August kits.

Please go HERE for the original July kit reveal post and details on a giveaway!

Christina here today, sharing two more cards that I made with the July kit. The first one features the banner from Mama Elephant's Soiree, a few gold sequins from Ellen Hutson, and metallic gold baker's twine from The Twinery. I think I could put this twine on everything! The Polaroid die is from My Favorite Things.

My second card uses a fun, striped envelope from Martha Stewart Crafts. I cut down a piece of cardstock stamped with the Hero Arts sentiment to place in the envelope. The top of the Sweet Blush cardstock is embossed with polka dots, and I added a strip of glitter tape to ground the envelope. The wood veneer stars from Studio Calico were colored with a Copic marker.

Don't forget that we have a giveaway ending tonight! You have until 11:59 PM EDT today, August 7 to comment on the July kit reveal post for a chance to win WPlus9's Pile it On stamp set and coordinating dies.
